The Shin Bet has become involved in the search for four-year-old Yuval Kogen, a Haredi child who disappeared on Thursday at Hof Hofit beach in Ashkelon. Yuval was last seen on the beach area earlier that morning. Israeli police forces, assisted by volunteers and divers, have been conducting extensive searches for the boy in recent hours.
Yuval's parents have provided testimony to the police. According to his father, Yuval went for a walk with him and his two sisters, aged eight and ten. At one point, the family sat on a wooden platform facing the sea, when Yuval asked to look at the vegetation behind them. He stood up and walked away, but moments later, when the father looked back, Yuval had vanished.
The Israel Police have appealed to the public to remain vigilant and report any information that could help locate Yuval. Anyone with relevant information is urged to contact the police emergency number 100 or the Ashkelon police station at 08-6771440.
